Can you spot skin cancer #4?

To help you find a possible melanoma on your skin, dermatologists created the ABCDEs of melanoma: A is for Asymmetry - One half of the spot is unlike the other half. B is for Border - The spot has an irregular, scalloped, or poorly defined border. C is for Color - The spot has varying colors from one area to the next, such as shades of tan, brown or black, or areas of white, red, or blue. D is for Diameter - Usually greater than 6 millimeters, or about the size of a pencil eraser, when diagnosed, they can be smaller. E is for Evolving - The spot looks different from the rest or is changing in size, shape, or color. If you find a spot on your skin that has any of the ABCDEs of melanoma, see a board-certified dermatologist for a skin exam. Skin cancers can look different from these examples. This is why it’s important to see a dermatologist if you have any lumps, bumps, spots, sores, or other marks on your skin that are new or changing, or that worry you for any other reason.
